Maziar Afrassiabi
Maziar Afrassabi is interested in the relation and tension between the different layers and scales of art production, and the disparate geopolitical and historical genealogies that condition art production.
Afrassiabi will use his residency at KAMEN to reflect on his work, situated in the local dynamic amid the lake, mountains and fishermen.
